Project Based Learning

1. Project based learning is a student center where the students learn about by their
experiences. The integration PBL and the context of science, Technology, engineering and th
is benifical for teachersto develop integrated education program. When you combine PBl and
Technology you will find deeper learning. It is very important to integrate technology n Pbl.

2. To ensure the PBl accessible, projects should include engaged topics and driving
questions to promote students.Pbl promotes relationship building among students. For
implementing PBL in traditional classrrom can accur some challenges. Even teachers might
face some differentiations. Using Technology, encourage group work will help this transition.

3. PBL advantages are: it is a lot of work so it keeps student busy. This is helping classroom
management. It is helping students to improve their critical thinking skills. Pbl is a bridge to
connect the classroom and real life. PBL is an awesome way to engage students. This is a
team work, so students will learn responsibilities and cooperation.

4. PBL disadvantages are: it is taking a lot of time to finish. PL does not cover all the
required teks. They might get low grade in state test. Old school teachers are not familiar
enough to implement PBL in their classroom. For crowded class pbl can be a hard teaching
method.Schools may not have enough budget to implement PBL in their curriculum.

5. In 21st century classrooms PBL is taking a big part. By implementing PBL,we are
preaparing our students to meet the 21st with repertoire of skills they can use successfully.
In 21st century classrooms students draw teir own conclusions. Students try to solve complex
problems or answer questions that have n single correct answer. They are ready to talk in
front of audience
